This game is just great in every way. I've always really liked word searches. And this game has nice sound effects, and pleasing visuals. I love that the sound effect for "wrong" words isn't super obnoxious. And I like there isn't a penalty for getting words wrong because I can just swipe my finger over the grid and listen to the nice sound effects. (And I don't stress about being wrong) I could honestly go on and on about how I love this game but basically, this is amazing.

Come on people, seriously? An ad after every single level? This is ridiculous. They let you get the first 10 levels completed without a single ad, making you think it's going to be a good, not very ad-intrusive game, then it's after every level after that. I would rate 0 stars if there was an option for it. Lower the ad frequency SIGNIFICANTLY, and it could be a good game. Ad free option is $10. Which is NOT worth it in my opinion. Will not be returning to this game.

This game makes educating literacy to your brain fun. And the graphics are super modern so no lagging so you can play the game in HD. But there's a problem though, the ADS. I'm okay with ads but sometimes they show the same ad more than two times. It should change to a different ad after the old ad gets shown two times. Can the "Wordscapes Search" team fix this?

I love Wordscapes, Wordscapes In Bloom and Wordstacks, so this is the perfect addition to the family. It's fun, challenging, and the backgrounds are pretty. If you want to pass the time, relax and exercise your brain I highly recommend this game! Just be careful, staring at it for too long definitely causes eye strain since there's so much going on with all of the small letters so close together.

Like many others have said, this game goes WAY overboard on the ads. After every game, there's an ad. Some intrusive. Some outright crash the game. The game itself is decent. A wordsearch game can only be so interesting, but it's pretty entertaining. The interface is very good. However, I'd still give the edge to their other games, like wordscapes. Still tho, the ads are atrocious & a solid 50% of the game. The other 50% is repetitive events, that require too much time for a word find game.

So. Many. Ads. It starts out acceptable with an ad every once in a while. Then it's every single level. It doesn't take long to become more ad than game. Sometimes even an ad first thing when opening the game. The price to remove the ads is ridiculous. $10 is too much for this game. Maybe $5 at most. It's also in desperate need of an expanded word list. It's annoying having the same words 50 times in 80 levels.

I enjoy playing this game a lot. The only reason I'm not giving it five stars is the ads. I understand apps having ads, and usually I just close the ad and keep it moving...but the ads on this app are almost impossible to close out and it's so frustrating. You click the x and it takes you to a website or to the app store and you just go back and forth several times before it finally closes. It should not be that hard to close an ad out.

Game play is good; there are no issues with loading or lag. I especially like the "games within the game" aspect like the butterfly events and the highlighter challenge. However, the monthly highlighter challenges are entirely too difficult to earn. I mean, 2 bottles for 1 puzzle no matter the difficulty? Come on... and the prizes do not reflect the effort put into earning those prizes. Other than that, I really enjoy this game. It helps me to relax before bed.

Relaxing game for winding down. Once you get to a certain level there are weekend tournaments, which are fun to play... The only problem I have encountered with the game is that once you get into the higher levels, the game often glitches and freezes. When that happens you have to close the game and reopen it. However, when the game freezes, it does not seem to loose the words you have found up to that point, so while the glitch is troublesome, it's not that bad.

Hmmm... I actually think this might be a 5. Nice crossword. Soothing music. Beautiful colors and images. Very nice. I never give 5s, so I'm shocked at myself and will change rating if issues arise. So far, so good. EDIT: Down a 3 stars. This app is beautiful and soothing. The ads that run during gameplay are not intrusive. HOWEVER, the full-screen ads interfere with gameplay and are EXTREMELY intrusive. It takes too long to get away from them and they often take you to the play store. ðŸ˜

This is a great word search app. The only negative is the ads. An ad banner is constant across the bottom of the screen. Between each puzzle full-sceen ads appear. They generally have a minimum play time between 5 and 30 seconds, followed by a second ad with a 5 second minimum play time. Although I love this app content, the ads are too much and that is the only reason for the 3 rating. Am also deleting the app as ad frustration now outweighs playing joy.

I would have given it five stars because its alot of fun and challenging on some of the levels but the only reason why I didn't is because after I hit around level 25 the game will crash constantly. I can maybe do two words and sometimes not even one and it will crash. Please fix this problem because it's constantly happening and it's not just once a twice. It's crashed over 30 times within an hour of playtime. I would have given it 5 stars if it werent for the constant crash of the game itself.

Number one: an enjoyable, relaxing game where I can turn off my brain cells and not think much to play the game. Number two: I don't care for the fullscreen ads, but over the past few years, they have become much harder to skip than the last year. Finally, newer updates are just making the overall experience unpleasantly overwhelming: there's too many things going on! I just want to play an aesthetically pleasing crossword puzzle, not be inundated with useless garbage.

It's very fun and relaxing. I enjoy the levels, which do get more challenging as you go on, which is good. It also takes words that you find that aren't on the list which os very nice. Another thing I like is that the environment of the game is peaceful and lets you sink into it, also because there are no disruptive ads, and the ads are not annoying at all and easy to skip. I recommend it :)

Fun and challenging. Each level goes from really easy to challenging! This helps with both my cognitive and my dexterity. There are not a ton of ads and you have the option to upgrade to get rid of the ads as well. I'm zooming thru these levels. I knew my Catholic school education would come in handy for something, just didn't think it would be for vocabulary words/seek n find. Definitely recommend.

It's good for what it is. It wastes time. However... This game has some glaring issues. For starters, let's talk about battery. This game hogs up your battery from your phone. Even when restricted and used offline, your batter is sure to drain quick. Next, the crashing.. oh the crashing. During a game, you can crash within seconds of each other, making the app more annoying to use than anything. These will happen out of nowhere and may even hinder your progress entirely. As far as ads, it's ok.

Update: Ads have gotten way worse, and I really don't like how the events are only on certain days of the week, and they reset your points @ the end of the month. Almost impossible to earn rewards. :'( However, the effects and music are beautiful and relaxing. I love the backgrounds and pictures too. I like the feature that gives you points for extra words that you find because I love doing that. Just wish the events weren't so stressful.

Easy and not complicated. To save battery on my phone, I use it offline. I'm a new user of the free online word finds and so far, I love it. Very easy to use. Beautiful graphics. It does have music, but I mute it. Extremely easy to move up levels. When you find a word not on in the list, it counts, which is nice. So far, so good; easy 5 star rating from me.

What makes this different from other word search games is that you can rotate the puzzle to look for words another way. That's so cool! It's not too spammy with ads neither, which is nice. I will eventually make a purchase though to support the developer! I love this word search game! I had to drop to 4 stars from 5 because I made a purchase for a bundle, and naturally, I thought that would remove the ads, but it didn't. There's a completely separate purchase to remove ads from the game tho 😞

It's easy to play. I like the background changes, but I would like to be able to choose the background. No ads until level 11, then it seemed it would be periodic, but ads returned after level 15 and come up every time you advance to next level. At this point it advises you how to purchase without ads. Personally I never buy into that because it seems the ads return regardless of purchase. Other than putting up with ads, it is an easy fun game for a typical word search game.
